……………………….

"Who are you?"

'We are the Guardians of this Universe; Protectors of all sanctioned beings that have summoned us to this realm, against those who wish to destroy it. This has been our sole purpose in life, which has been embedded in our hearts for all eternity. Throughout the generations of our existence, we have experienced incredible miracles that will bring light to the darkest soul of a planet, to disasters and tragedies that would tear a living soul to pieces. Though our purpose is the same, we have many different forms and personalities that may conflict with each other, but we have learned to live with those differences, and embrace them. There are some of us who wish to protect one specific planet, realm, or even time; then there are those who will try to govern and protect all life, no matter what realm.'

………………………

"Are there leader's amongst your kind?"

'Though all of us consider ourselves equal, there are a select few that were nominated by all other Guardians, to be acknowledged as the strongest and wisest Guardians that have ever lived, as our rulers. These rulers are known as the "Lords Of The Guardians". These Guardians are: Eden, Ark, and a Celestial Entity made of 13 Knights called "Knight's Of The Round". With their wisdom and power, they have strengthened our purpose to its fullest extent; but they have also unified us, bringing peace and harmony to our realm. We are eternally grateful for their existence. Our Lords govern both the Guardian's Realm, but their own realm as well.'

…………………………..

"What have you learned from your travels?"

'For those of us, including myself, who try to govern all other realms, have frequently kept watch over all realms and have discovered something truly remarkable. Within the realms, there are many brave souls that show our conviction, and kindness, but most importantly, share the same purpose as we Guardians. It is these souls that we will gladly lend our strength and be called upon whenever we need to. There are those who wish to use our power to either destroy or use us for selfish reason, which in turn, taint us and become the very danger we will protect against. It is these brave souls that give us the strength to be purified of that evil.'

………………………….

"How are you summoned to our realm?"

'Within the realms we have governed, there are different methods to summon us. In one realm, we are known as "Summons", and called upon with these mysterious orbs, made up of the planet's blood known as the "LifeStream", called Materia. In another, we are known "Guardian Forces", in which we are inside a powerful soul of this realm, and must be drawn out to help the summoner. In another realm, we are called "Eidolons", in which we are encased in weapons and items, to only be called upon those who are born of the blood of summoners.'

…………………………..

"With all this in mind, why are you telling me this? Why was I brought here?"

'Dear Child, you were not brought to this realm of your own free will. You were brought here because something in your realm had occurred. Though your situation is grim and will depend on the Light Warriors of your realm, the true battle of existence will occur, we may need their assistance to destroy this menace to ALL OF EXISTENCE. You will be our messenger to them when they are needed. This is the decree made by Our Lords, though powerful, stood no chance against this evil. This demon was once sealed by all of us guardians joined together, though in turn, our powers diminished and were separated to these different realms. Only now have we regained our strength and yet we still stand no chance against it.'

'As our messenger, you must be told the existence and origins of this evil, and in order to do that, I must tell you the origins of the Guardians' existence. You also must be told of the other brave souls that will aid us in order to stop this demon. Finally, you must be aware and honor those warriors who sacrificed their very existence, in their respective realms and time, to stop the demon's influence from destroying their realm.'

'They are known as "The Six Forgotten Warriors"; three incredible heroes that said goodbye to their loved ones in order to save their realm. They had sacrificed their futures and lives against the three most evil souls that ever existed, knowing that both the good must be sealed with the evil.'

"I still wish to live sir, so I will help in any way that I can. Please, tell me all that has happened, how this menace came to be, the warriors' tales, EVERYTHING."

'Very well Child, this is the story of how the evil "Barakcus" came to be and the origins of us Guardians. For I am the Keeper of Lightning, Ramuh……..'
